Abstract

The rubber endless track for a motor vehicle has a rubber track (2) running on a drive wheel and two idler wheels (4,5). One of the idler wheels is spaced from the road engaging length of the track a larger distance than the drive wheel (3) or the other idler. The road wheel frame (6) is spring mounted to a mounting frame (14) on the chassis. The idler wheels are mounted on the running frame. The drive wheel can have a larger diameter than the idler wheels.
